Abstract: The evolution of the CPU has forced manufacturers to change how CPU cooling is approached. There no single correct way, but there are various options, some options are extremely simple while others can be rather complex. In the market today, there are var...
Available in 5 difference colors, Great cooling power, Fans match heatsink color
Installation could have been easier, Could potentially block memory and other components
Phanteks is making a name for themselves in the enthusiast market with their very large and attractive CPU coolers. Currently with only two CPU coolers under their belt they are being mentioned in the same conversation with known companies like Zalman...
It’s sad but this test session is incomplete just because the Phanteks PH-TC14CS turned out to be but one half of a super-cooler both from a technical standpoint and in actual performance. The small total effective cooling surface of its heatsink, the...
The Phanteks PH-TC14CS surprised us. It is a wonderfully manufactured CPU cooler, with the advantage (over the tower coolers) of helping to cool all the components around the CPU, including the memory modules. It is not, however, a “slim” cooler, since it...
Great airflow performance, Very quiet, Looks excellent, Lots of accessories in the box, 120mm fan mounting holes retain legacy compatibility

Phanteks second offering to the world is a very quiet, solidly built cooler. The cost of the PH-TC14CS may be a little higher than some will want to pay. ...
Excellent performance, Aesthetically pleasing, Several color options, Very well made, Fans run quiet, Can use larger style ram when using single fan
Can be rather difficult and time consuming to install, Basically must remove motherboard from case, Might not fit on motherboard with larger heatsinks near CPU socket, Installation options can be limited depending on motherboard configuration
Sometimes we go into a review of a product not thinking about who that item is really intended for. Much of my thinking was that since Phanteks had produced one of the best coolers we have ever tested, the TC14CS would be close in performance. Well th...
Performance (for this type of coolers), Fits low/narrow cases, Pair of good fans included, Five color options
Mounting could be easier
The Phanteks PH-TC14PE turned out to be one of the highest performance air coolers around, and I've been eager to hear again from the manufacturer. While I was expecting for a slightly smaller version of the TC14PE, a top-down cooler like this is also...
